 Topic: Your 10 Favourite Prog Albums of 1967Posted: May 11 2021 at 05:47 |

Bearing in mind what an impossible task it was to choose just one favourite prog album from each year, here's your chance to name your TEN favourite albums from the Prog Archives for each year, starting with 1967. There's no need to list them in any particular order - just choose your ten favourite prog albums from 1967.
Here's my Top 10, which is heavy on the psychedelic...  BRIAN AUGER - Open THE DOORS - The Doors H.P. LOVECRAFT - H.P. Lovecraft JEFFERSON AIRPLANE - Surrealistic Pillow THE JIMI HENDRIX EXPERIENCE - Are You Experienced? KALEIDOSCOPE (U.K) - Tangerine Dream LOVE - Forever Changes THE MOODY BLUES - Days of Future Passed VANILLA FUDGE - Vanilla Fudge THE ZODIAC - Cosmic Sounds

Since prog rock really did not exist in 1967, taking a couple of liberties:
The Moody Blues - Days of Future Passed Cream - Disraeli Gears Love - Forever Changes Traffic - Mr. Fantasy Pink Floyd - The Piper At The Gates of Dawn Procol Harum - Procol Harum The Doors - Strange Days The Rolling Stones - Their Satanic Majesties Request The Velvet Underground - The Velvet Underground & Nico Ten Years After - Ten Years After Nick

^ I would've chosen Cream too, until I discovered they're not listed on ProgArchives.

I took nine liberties with my list, as only one was a genuine prog album, although they're all listed on ProgArchives.

I could have sworn they were under proto-prog, Mandela Effect I guess. I'm surprised they aren't since they seem to be very liberal with what falls under that category.

^ It's funny because I thought Velvet Underground were listed here under Proto-Prog too, but I must have been confusing them with Velvet Opera, which is easily done at my age.

Every 4 or 5 there's a "why aren't Velvet Underground on here?" thread

I can see why.
If we are being "strict" with the term I'd include The Nice, Procol Harum, Moody Blues and not much else. But if The Doors, The Beatles, The Who, Deep Purple, etc are under the category I don't see why VU not, in fact, I'd say the might "deserve" it more than Purple or The Doors. |
